He held Houston off the board and struck out five but he&#8217;s not a trustworthy arm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The southpaw has a 7.46 ERA and 1.81 WHIP over the last two seasons (76 innings), and Altuve has more plate appearances against Suarez than anyone on the Angels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Altuve is batting .412 and slugging .588 in 19 career at-bats versus Suarez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-fa134a48-a478-432b-95e0-66881f0d337b\">Quick pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Assad over 16.5 outs (-125):<\/strong> The Cubs righty is&nbsp;enjoying a strong stretch as&nbsp;far as this play is concerned, clearing this line in five consecutive starts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:95094\">Embed: #95094<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has allowed three runs or fewer in all but one of those outings. Assad&#8217;s last start, which came at Coors Field, was the lone time he fell short.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chicago only got 2.2 innings out of starter Justin Steele yesterday, forcing six relievers into action. The game before that, the Cubs used three relievers&nbsp;for four frames following Jordan Wicks&#8217; five-inning outing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An overworked bullpen can go a long way in helping&nbsp;a pitcher clear his outs prop. But Assad will also benefit from his opponent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He gets the Washington Nationals, who are 28th in wRC+ and OBP this month, getting on base at a paltry .279 clip.&nbsp;Assad went six innings against them on Aug. 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 2:18 p.m. ET on 09\/19\/2024<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s a light Thursday in the MLB world and the latest game starts at 8:10 p.m. ET between the Houston Astros and Los Angeles Angels.
